Masters Degree Description

The MSc Law and Finance is designed for a new generation of legal and financial leaders. This innovative, interdisciplinary course equips you with a strong foundation in legal, financial, and economic analysis—and, crucially, the ability to apply that knowledge in context. You will gain a highly sought-after skill set that offers a distinct advantage in navigating complex global corporate and finance markets. 

The MSc Law and Finance will provide you with a cutting-edge education at the intersection of law and finance delivered by the UCL Faculty of Laws, School of Management, and Department of Economics.

In today’s complex global economy, the expectations placed on legal and finance professionals—especially those in corporate and financial law—have changed dramatically. Employers are no longer looking for experts who can solely advise on legal issues or financial strategy in isolation. Instead, they seek professionals who operate fluently across legal, commercial, and financial domains.
